    Media Release 21 September 2016 BSA finds tiler featured on The Block NZ: Villa Wars treated unfairly The Broadcasting Standards Authority has upheld a fairness complaint from a tiler featured in an episode of The Block NZ: Villa Wars and found that his conduct was misrepresented. The BSA has ordered broadcaster MediaWorks TV to pay costs to the Crown of $1,500. Ljubisa ‘Bob’ Djurdjevic was described as a ‘temperamental European tiler’ who allegedly wanted to be paid in advance and went ‘AWOL’ when he was not paid. He complained that he was treated unfairly and that the show misrepresented his work ethic. He also complained that he had made it clear he did not want to be shown on the programme. The Authority found that the programme created an unfairly negative impression of Mr Djurdjevic. It was alleged that he did not ‘show up’ at the site and was late. The programme created a strong impression that he wanted to be paid upfront before completing his work. The Authority found that these claims were inaccurate and misleading. It was further found that Mr Djurdjevic was not adequately informed of the nature of his participation in the programme or that he would be portrayed as ‘temperamental’ or that the theme would be ‘tradie troubles’. The Authority said “Mr Djurdjevic was not given a reasonable opportunity to comment on how he was portrayed in the broadcast because he did not know he was going to feature in the broadcast or the angle that would be taken.” In its decision, the Authority emphasised the importance of ensuring that all participants in reality television are treated fairly.

He was a left-handed opening batsman. He represented New Zealand in 38 Tests from 2000 to 2004. During his cricketing career he played for Auckland, Buckinghamshire and Otago. Richardson began his career as a left-arm spinner, batting at number 10. As his bowling ability declined, he worked on developing his batting, to the point where he was selected as an opening batsman for New Zealand, at age 29. Richardson scored 2776 Test runs at an average of 44.77, including four centuries and 19 fifties. His sole Test wicket came in a match against Pakistan in 2001, dismissing Mohammad Yousuf, then known as Yousuf Youhana, caught and bowled for 203. Richardson was the fieldsman who caught Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne on 99, the closest the Australian came to a century in test cricket.

It has been another satisfying year with progress being shown in all aspects of the work we are involved in, from ANZ FutureFerns through to high performance (SKYCITY Mystics) . Netball New Zealand and the five Zones continued to refine our organization’s role and purpose through- out the year. We all have a very high commitment to alignment with the national Whole of Netball plan and linking closely with Netball NZ’s strategies. Targets were set by Netball New Zealand in consultation with each of the zones and focused largely on increasing player participation as well as coach and umpire numbers. We were successful in some areas, but also recognized that targets in some other areas were not realistic, so were able to review these number for the 2016 season. The CEO’s of the Zone and Netball New Zealand continue to have regular meetings as do the Community and Performance team nationally. National Chair meetings are also held twice per annum, usually alongside the CEO meeting. It was a good outcome for the Coach Development role to transition from Netball New Zealand into the Zones earlier this year. We now have very clear lines of accountability for outcomes in this area and we were fortunate to be able to secure Tania Heap with such a wealth of experience in coach development.
